The `libgit2-sys-1.9.6` crate in the repo requires that the version of `libgit2` in the system is >= `1.9.6` - the latest version in unstable is `1.9.4`. There are several ways to go about it - two most reasonable ones being bumping down `libgit2-sys` or simply using an overriden `pkgs.libgit`, which is what we do.

This PR adds a temporary override for
pkgs.libgit2to satisfy rust'slibgit2-sys, as explained in the commit message.Do note, that it will build
libgit2from source, although that should be a quick process.If you want to go a different way about it, lmk.
btw, the history seems weird, duplicate, but once you rebase the prev. PR it should reconcile properly, I was under the impression that the stacked PRs are a little more streamlined
for the impatient - the patched version can already be used with
